Yeah, that and Stranger in a Strange Land are great. I can reread Heinlein and Asimov forever. Another author I like is Gregory Benford - he writes a lot of hard sci-fi.

To that list, I'd add books by David Brin and Vernor Vinge.

George R.R. Martin wrote some pretty good Sci-fi back in the day. Tuf Voyaging, a collection of short stories about Haviland Tuf was pretty good. He also wrote some great sci-fi short stories scattered across several different of his book collections.

I'm having a terrible time deciding between Rendezvous with Rama (Arthur C. Clarke) and The Lathe of Heaven (Ursula K. Le Guin).

Definitely my second choice, although Ray Bradbury is my favorite sci-fi author.

I try to read The Stories of Ray Bradbury every few years.

mine would have to be 'Enders Games - Orson Scott Card' and 'Robert McCammon - Swan Song' Both are great books in my opinion. ^_^

I bet nobody's heard of it, but my favorite would have to be "Ender's Game"...

Great book :thumbsup:

I can read and re-read over and over anything Heinlein and Asimov. Either that one or Stranger in a Strange Land is probably my fav scifi though.

Star Trek: Federation
Or any book involving Q, I have 4 of them. Not sure if there are more.

Vendetta is a great TNG book involving the Borg before they were voyagered (nerfed).
